June 24 Update and what it means for you Knights! :D

So, Knights are finally given the option to use shields; awesome. It might be a ploy at adding balance to the PvP field, and before anyone files a complaint, here's what actually happens with the update.

Knights: Your Lusaka weapons have gone one-handed, leaving us the option for a shield (Yay! ) Yes, now we look cool.

Pros: We sacrifice the +30% HP for the option to bear 2 pieces of EQ that can be pierced, meaning you can gain a net total of +140 STA (215 if you go Ulti+10!) I'm not about to go out of my way to test this on HP values, but someone elses feedback would be nice! :] So this means we gain the possibility of branching our stats out if you're a 1vs1 Knight; This one's looking bright for you 1vs1-ers

Cons: You just lost +30% HP if you're a tank, and here's what's cooler- you lost access to your 2H weapons skills. You're now limited to Sword/Axe Mastery, However you can use...pan barrier now? Rage, Guard, 2H mastery, and all other knight skills are forfeited for shield use.

So I guess in summation, you can drop your knight skills for a possibly more aesthetically please look, and possibly the hopes of unveiling a new form of tanking for us, or hold fast to those two-handers we've all come to know and love; at least until the check for a 2H weapon is removed from our skill reqs :].

There you go, just a quick review on this update and a personal thought on it

WOW?????

Now if only we can get 2H skills working with 1H weapons x3 lol.

lusaka weapons only? how bout other weapons?

So..... Your on the giolog team of staff....?

Just Lusaka; I think it would have been better to allow the Ancient Sword to be 1H though :/

^
haha lol. yah. maybe that would might imbalance the game

@Merkaba... this just got in... Rm's Lusaka's Stick can Wear shields also... Try it

^
yah already tried it. i look kinda wierd. lol

I'd take the shield + ancient sword if it meant giving up the 2H skills x3 lol but yeah I see how it'd imbalance it

What??? 1H? That sucks............ You're ruining the game.
What about the AoE skills?

Knights are basically known for their HP and AOE Skills though QQ. It's kind of strange seeing a knight being unable to aoe lol. Ahh oh well, gave up on Knights for now I guess.

i want create one knight now xD

The knights who weren't near "end-game" status are basically SoL now >: lol

Hmm, I thought I read a post about knights having their skills fixed, so they're able to use Knight Skills again.

If so then things might be looking up for this possibly ill-begotten update
